A high-flying city worker has quit her £100k-a-year job to live in a seven-metre-long van with her pet chihuahua. Dominique Niemandt, 29, was a director at a London accounting firm before taking the plunge this year.
She forked out £25,000 to buy a converted VW Crafter and is now travelling around Europe with her one-year-old pet dog Kevin. She says she now feels "so much freer and so much more like me".
She added: "Before I felt like I was in a hamster wheel for so long. I just thought there must be more to life. I used to work 60 or 70 hour weeks. On holiday I would be the loser working in the corner. I sort of felt like I didn't have a choice."
